Kinetic Novel/Lack of player choice
If basing your option on the first few chapters, you’d be forgiven for thinking Origin Story is a kinetic novel because of the small number of choices the player can make. I promise you, it isn’t, but it will take some time for this to be clear. For reasons I cannot explain without spoiling the whole plot, the very nature of the story requires the MC to be forced through certain events and interactions with characters.
In the earlier chapters of the game, there is some smaller choices which will result in a few alternate scenes depending on the choice made. However, significant choices will start to occur more in the future. This will take some time so please stick with it.
Forced Love Interests
Again, I cannot explain why without spoiling the plot, but the MC will be forced to have some sexual interaction with one particular character (or maybe two, depending on a choice). However, once the MC has had their moment with this character(s), all interactions with them in the future will be optional. All other love interests will be entirely optional.
Animation
This may be a dealbreaker for some, but it is what it is. There are currently no animated scenes (well… maybe one and you’ll see exactly why). I have tried it, and so far, I am useless at it. I have played far too many AVNs that would have been decent but for the terrible animations that ruin the overall quality of the package, and until I am better, I do not want Origin Story to be considered among them.
So, at present, all lewd scenes are comprised of static renders only, with some dynamic images on occasion.
Freeroaming
THIS IS NOT A SANDBOX GAME, however, there will be some free roaming sections within the story, however, these will be sporadic and not too involved. The first freeroam section in Chapter 1 contains roughly 45 minutes of backstory and lore, so I highly recommend exploring it fully. There is also a small one in Chapter 2. After that, there is no further freeroaming sections.
Music & Sound
There is both music and sound effects in the story. Some of them, however, I am considering as placeholders until I find something better, or maybe even commission some in the future. One can dream.
Update/Release Schedule
So far I have been maintaining a release schedule of 2-6 months per chapter.
Lesbian content
There will be lesbian content, however, it will all be optional and alternate content will take its place if opted out.
Gay/Bi Male content
There is no planned gay or bi (on the male side) content.
Futa/Trans content
There is no planned futa/trans content.
“Fake harem”
As mentioned, the nature of the story requires the MC to interact with a number of different LIs. So by definition this game will be a “harem game”. However, these girls will also have some fun with each other (if girl on girl content is enabled). So, you’d be correct in labelling it a “fake harem” game, and I’m absolutely fine with that because that is the kind of story I want to tell.
Is there any NTR/cuckolding?
No, there is no NTR in the textbook definition of it (as in no LI is cheating on you), and most certainly no cuckolding. However, throughout Season 1 there are some minor scenes showing female characters interacting with other male characters, these are rare and the majority of these do not involve LI characters, though full disclosure, one extremely brief scene does. There are also scenes if sharing between females. Season 2 will introduce some occasional and completely optional sharing/swinging scenes with other male characters with certain girls. This scenes will be replaced with non-sharing variants if opted out of.
Regardless, Origin Story comes with a warning and the ability to play in Safe Mode for those who may define such content as NTR, or simply just don’t wish to see other male characters having fun. Safe mode removes these scenes and either replace them with alternate content, or removes them entirely if they do not serve the story.
Anal sex/ass play content
All anal sex content is optional.
There will also be ass-play and rimming (both giving and receiving) content. Again, these will only become available if the player has opted into the anal content in the first place, and then both giving and receiving content are separate optional content because some people might be open to sticking their dick in an ass but not their tongue. Some people might like sticking their tongue in an ass, but not having one in theirs. You get the picture.
BDSM/Femdom Content
There will eventually be some BDSM and femdom content in the game, but both of these will be completely optional (and some will have alternate content if you opt out).
The BDSM will not be particularly hard – there’ll be some cuffs, chains, spanking, paddling, clamps & gags. But no severe pain because that’s not my bag.
The femdom is not particularly hard either – Just some light cuffing, foot worship, face-sitting, edging, degradation, and submission. There is no pegging or anal play on the MC’s part or anything else like that.
Incest Patch
For the love of all that is holy, if one ever becomes available, please do not incest patch Origin Story. It is vital to the plot that the MC is NOT related by blood to Parker and Riley, and MC’s actual mother becomes an important character through flashbacks later on.
Why did you do this/that? Why is a character or the MC this way?
This is in response to pretty much 90% of the criticism I have gotten so far but I can’t answer them without spoiling the future. And as frustrating as it is, and much as I want to spoil things to nip that criticism in the bud, I would much rather things unfold naturally as they should for the sake of those who enjoy the story without being spoon-fed.
All I can say is, bear in mind that I have written 20 chapters of Origin Story already. I plan incredibly far in advance. I foreshadow… a lot. I make characters do things for reasons that might not be revealed until 15 chapters in. Nearly everything I do is intentional. I don’t make certain characters super horny because “porn game”, I do it for a reason. If you don’t like a particular character because of a certain thing they have done or a way they act, maybe something will happen in the future that will make you thing “oh… I probably shouldn’t have been mad about that”. Maybe sometimes things are not always as they seem.
Please just bear with me and don’t write it off because of one particular character’s behaviour, because you might be wrong about it. Just saying.
